Ra Pop Pa Pa Pa Pom

Repeat The Sounding Joy, Little Drummer Boy. Up on the housetop 4 calling birds sing, Why does she wear 5 golden rings? Jack Frost will nip at the famous nose that's red, then sticky canes and gingerbread. In fairyland snow underneath mistletoe, she wishes for chilly kisses, but will he show? Three french hens greet Emanuel, whispering to him, "Joyeux Noel." Silverbell dreams of little girls and boys, figgy pudding, Kris Kringle toys. My true love sent to me a jingle bell melody of chestnuts roasting and eggnog toasting under a Christmas tree. Repeat The Sounding Joy Little Drummer Boy, and play your drum for him, a joyous hymn. Celestial beings will sing, Welcome to the New Born King, the world's great glorious blessing. RA POP PA PA PA POM

You must be musical, because I see a happy melody, a cadence, and a sure-fire knowledge of a volume of songs!

Marikate, I really like how you incorporated little snapshots of many different Christmas carols and songs into your poem. I counted 12 but I imagine there are more. Nicely done!

Your comments had a way of making me feel proud and self-confident. I'm so touched by each one. You understood what I was trying to convey in them. When I'm in the writing zone they come to me easier. I didn't count the different songs in my Christmas poem. That's so neat you did. I was trying to mix up lyrics for fun, u noticed! I'm so new at this, not as experienced and fine-tuned as the seasoned experts, but I love to write now. I will read your comments over and over. Meri beaucoup.

I think 'The Little Drummer Boy' is my favorite X-mas song ever. Thanks for a fun read, Marikate. Joy Forever, Gershon
